The SR270 is the industry’s largest radial lift skid steer, with a rated operating capacity of 2,700 pounds at 90 horsepower. The Tier 4 Final model features best-in-class torque, breakout force and standard auxiliary hydraulic flow, as well as one of the industry’s widest cabs and best-in-class 360-degree visibility.

The SR270, at the time of its introduction, was also the industry’s first skid steer to meet emissions standards via Selective Catalytic Reduction (SCR) technology. Because SCR is an after-treatment system, it lowers exhaust temperatures and does not require unproductive fuel use associated with burning off particulate matter – great for larger engines. This offers a significant reduction in fuel use compared to systems with DPFs. This SCR solution is more efficient and requires less maintenance than DPFs, as it does not require filter replacement or upkeep. It also removes complexity for operators and maintenance staff by eliminating regeneration associated with DPFs.
